Question

after allowing a discount of 25% on the market price of an article there is a gain of 20% what is the profit percent if the article is sold at the market price allowing no discount​

Answer 1

Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the MP be Rs x

D%= 25%

So, SP= x - 25/100 of x

= x - x/4

= 3x/4

P% = 20%

So,

CP = (100/100+P%)× SP

CP= ( 100/120)× 3x/4

CP= 5/6× 3x/4

CP= 15x/24

if it was sold at market price, then profit

=x - 15x/24

= 9x/24

P%= 9x/24 × 24/15x × 100%

P%= 60%

So, the profit percent is 60%
